To make "Bigfoot" cookies: trace a foot on a piece of wax paper (this is great for kids and the cookies are rich, so small feet are better!), flip the paper over and carefully fill the outline with the cookie mixture.

About

This was my favorite as a kid. We used to trace our own feet, the cat's paws and, on occasion, dad's feet. I loved being in the kitchen and I could help with most of this recipe. As an adult, I made the traditional drop cookies for my high school students and they were a huge hit.
The recipe comes from an old church cookbook out of Wenatchee, WA, so I can't take credit for it, but it's one that will be stay in my family forever.
